Front Panel Operation - 5

2 - Setting the Output Voltage, Current, Compensation, and Relay Mode

This example shows you how to set the output voltage and current. It also shows you how to set the compensation circuit for either high or low capacitance cellular phones. Relay mode only applies to Agilent models 66309B/D units that have Option 521 installed. Note that no front panel changes affect the output of the unit unless it has been enabled.

Set the output voltage

 

Action

Display

1.

To enter an approximate value without using the voltage menu: On the Entry keypad,

7.003V 0.004A

 

press ∅ or ∩ to select the 1’s digit in the voltage field. Then rotate the front panel

 

 

RPG knob to obtain 7 V.

 

 

If the unit is in CC mode, you won’t see the output voltage change until the voltage

 

 

setting is low enough to cause the unit to go into CV mode.

 

2.

The easiest way to enter an accurate value: On the Function keypad, press Voltage.

VOLT 7.000

 

On the Entry keypad, press Enter Number, 7, Enter.

 

3.To make minor changes to an existing value: On the Function keypad, press Voltage. VOLT 8.000 On the Entry keypad, press ∅ or ∩ to select the digit in the numeric field that you

wish to change. For example, move the flashing digit to the ones column to change a value in this column. Then, press ∪ to scroll from 7.000 to 8.000. Then press Enter.

Set the output current limit

 

Action

Display

1.

To enter an approximate value without using the current menu: On the Entry keypad,

8.003V 0.400A

 

press ∅ or ∩ to select the tenths digit in the current field. Rotate the front panel

 

 

RPG knob to obtain 0.4A.

 

 

If the unit is in CV mode, you will not see the output current change until the current

 

 

setting is low enough to cause the unit to go into CC mode.

 

2.

The easiest way to enter an accurate value: On the Function keypad, press Current.

CURR 0.400

 

On the Entry keypad, press Enter Number, .4, Enter.

 

3.To make minor changes to an existing value: On the Function keypad, press Current. CURR 0.500 On the Entry keypad, press ∅ or ∩ to select the digit in the numeric field that you

wish to change. For example, move the flashing digit to the tenths column to change a value in this column. Then, press ∪ to scroll from 0.400 to 0.500. Then press Enter.

NOTE: To output currents pulses greater than 3 A and up to 5 A peak, you must set the output current limit to greater than 3 amperes (3.0712 amperes max).

Set the output compensation

Action

1.On the Function keypad, press Output. Then press θ until you obtain the TYPE:CAP command. Use the ⊃ key and select either LOW, HIGH, or H2. Then

press Enter. Use HIGH compensation for faster transient response when testing phones with input capacitances greater than 5 μF, which applies for most phones. In

High mode, operation of the dc source may be momentarily unstable when testing phones that have input capacitances under 5 μF. Use LOW compensation if this occurs. If the dc source senses that there is no load on the output, it will automatically switch from High compensation mode to Low compensation mode.

H2 is an additional compensation mode that guarantees that the dc source stays in High compensation mode at all times.
